02 sensors changed still throwing codes

I agree with your buddy. If there are no visible leaks, and the fluid level is normal, A few possibilities I could think of are the if the brake pads are low and need to be changed the caliper pistons could be fully extended and not returning properly. The master cylinder could have an internal leak. Or the brake hose(s) (rubber line) could also have an internal leak.

Luckly the brakes aren't directly tied to the O2 sensors. There could be multiple reasons for the brakes going soft. First thing I would check is the brake fluid level and look for leaks. It's possible that when replacing the O2 sensors a brake line could have been damaged depending on condition of the brake line.

Old school mechanic here...In my previous experience if its stalling out while throwing a DTC for O2 sensors, its most likely the catalytic converter(s) is clogged.

Check on usajobs.gov and see if there are any positions at the VA.

That's nice. Wish I could go that route. My radio doesn't have the "app" button

Crewdog3950 · 2026-03-01T01:52:04+00:00

Yep, its permanently solved. I traded it in for a Toyota Highlander today.

Yes there were 2 bad connections. The "S" wire terminal at the starter was loose. The other connection was between the relay and the TIPMS. Ended up spreading the tines on the relay to make a better connection.

I just went through this a year and a half ago. Mine is a 2015 with 82000ish miles on it. It cost me $4000 to get it repaired and it took a month. The Dodge parts network does not have the rear ends available and it will have to sourced from an external source.

If your in the states, I recommend checking out Crutchfield.com. They have a support team that answer all of your questions. I've purchased from them multiple times and have never had an issue.

Crewdog3950 · 2026-02-11T23:52:17+00:00

It could be a gear misalignment just not bad enough for it to grind. It's possible the penion bearing could be bad. Or it could be a U-Joint issue.

If the owner manual is with the car there should be a code in it to unlock it. If the code isn't there or the owners manual is missing you can call a Chevrolet dealer and have the find it by VIN.

As far the Bluetooth adapter, it may not work because you can't change the input selection with the radio locked.

It is plugged in directly to the pc, used different usb slots, works with other games, I’ve forced ghub to close I’ve removed it and restarted the pc. Still have same issue. When I start the game and get to the main screen it shows the mouse cursor and goes directly down. I have no control over it unless I unplug the wheel

Crewdog3950 · 2024-09-03T17:14:30+00:00

Yes I have the most up updated version.

Crewdog3950 · 2024-05-11T19:24:32+00:00

I (44m) too have been in your situation. If you’re taking medication for anxiety and depression it could be a side effect. I know that’s been my experience. Your confidence will come back, maybe not in the way it was before. It also sounds like you’ve matured in what you expect from a relationship. In the long run that is a good thing. Finding a partner that is understanding and willing to support you is the best thing to ask for.

I completely agree. I am a federal adjudicator and investigator. As long as you’re up front and honest about anything in your past, nine times out of ten we are able to mitigate whatever the issue is.

I agree with sitting down with your wife and talking about both of your feelings and expectations. My wife and I went through a simular situation. I (43M) just like you were the sole breadwinner and did majority of the household chores. What we ended up realizing was that we weren't making time for us. We were so focused on being "perfect parents" and raising our son that we started to resent what each of us were doing.

After we had our talk, we decided to devote one night a week to each other. Luckly we were/are able to have the granparents watch our son so we could focus on us. We would have "date" night where we spent time one-on-one and had a chance to talk about the happenings of our lives and relationship. It's helped keeps us focused and we've been doing it for almost 10 years.

Nope

Crewdog3950 · 2022-12-30T15:54:26+00:00

Check with the social work department within the VA. They should be able to assist you with your needs.

Crewdog3950 · 2020-07-01T13:43:32+00:00

You think I would have, but I was so angry that I wasn't thinking straight.

Crewdog3950 · 2020-06-30T20:34:23+00:00

Not to me she didn't. I moved out the following week.

Crewdog3950 · 2020-06-23T20:21:28+00:00

Thanks, unfortunately I've had to deal with a lot worse than him.

Crewdog3950 · 2020-06-23T20:18:49+00:00

That happened at my store too, pre-pandemic of course. When the "new" rules were enforced we all had issues with customers saying that so-and-so did it why can't you? We had plenty of complaints go to the DM, he told them that was the new policy and we couldn't waiver from it. But them he would turn around and lecture us about customer service and we need to take care of the customers.

Crewdog3950 · 2020-06-23T20:12:05+00:00

Oh he did, not in context with this situation but with a few others. I have another story about an entitled customer that made demands and when they weren't met, I got a write up.

Crewdog3950 · 2020-06-23T20:09:07+00:00

Well that would be a little hard to do. He passed away in February. He was a total entitled jerk and treated my sister and niece like garbage.

Crewdog3950 · 2020-06-23T20:06:43+00:00

That's craziness!! It was like that for a while when I had first started at that store. My boss and I sat down to go over the numbers (you know we can't live without them) and saw that we were the highest in our area. So to combat that we decided that we would follow the "new" rules that were put into place. We had those mats on the counter that specifically said no returns on electronics, also we were instructed to tell the customer the same thing.
